Depending on the field, a degree or cert may equate to just being good at taki
ng tests or writing papers. Granted, these are great skills to have. I used
to work at a place where a professional engineers license was all about signat
ure authority. The folks doing the design work were contractors or
consultants that didn't have a PE. The guy with the PE license had to review
and approve their work and sign off on it. The folks working for him may be
smarter, but he harbors the responsibilty for their work.
In my time in IT, experience and application of knowledge were more important
than certs. Certs and degrees were tools for getting a job elsewhere.
